Do not play with fire: Mamata Banerjee attacks Centre over CAA-NRC

| @indiablooms | Dec 26, 2019, at 03:02 pm

Kolkata/IBNS: Holding yet another protest rally against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019, and National Register of Citizens (NRC), West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday warned the Centre urging it not to play with fire.

Mamata held a protest rally from Rajabazar to Mullick Bazar here.

This is the second week where Mamata is hitting the streets protesting against the CAA-NRC and demanded the Centre to withdraw the new law which will grant citizenship to all non-Muslim refugees who came to India from Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan before 2015.

Standing beside the students in the backdrop of the assault on Jamia Millia University, Aligarh Muslim University students, Mamata said, "We fully support the student community and their right to protest."

The Trinamool Congress supremo said, "A delegation of INTTUC will visit the families of those killed during anti-CAB-NRC protests in Karnataka."

Indian National Trinamool Trade Union Congress (INTTUC) is the trade union wing of Mamata's party.
